Introducing Daniel Cox on guitar

Daniel grew up in Coffs Harbour and started playing guitar at the age of 10. He’s always been a fan of 70s rock bands and has a particular love of Van Halen, Ozzie Osbourne, Sabbath and Freak Kitchen. Dan was a founding member of Nine Sons of Dan who were dubbed “the next big thing” by radio station Hot Tomato and their single “She’s So Fine” was the #1 most added track to Australian Radio in 2011.

In 2019 Dan got a call from a promoter asking if he’d be interested in auditioning for a band that was popular in the 90s. He didn’t mention names but Dan asked if it was The Poor  and the guy was shocked that he guessed! Dan’s mum was a fan of the band and played the “ Who Cares” album constantly so it was a firm favourite with Dan. Good work Mum! An audition followed, but it was only a few songs in when Skenie said  “ I’ve seen what I need to see, let’s go to the pub”….Dan was in!

Daniel continues to tour and record with The Poor and showmanship and musical talent add a serious dash of excitement to his shows with The Filthys…noone can take their eyes off him!
